A Birthday Girl

I cannot believe that Mary-Kate will be 5 tomorrow! She is so excited. I have been teary eyed all day. Yesterday we took her out to dinner and then for ice cream. Tomorrow we are having a family birthday party for her. She will have cupcakes at her school. Next Saturday is her party. It is a Strawberry Shortcake theme. The party is going to be on a farm. The kids will have cake and homemade ice cream. They will feed the baby animals. They will go on a trolley ride in the woods and ride little ponies. MK couldn't be more excited. I haven't ordered the cake yet (I tried) , but the place wanted me to wait. I think I am going to do a pull away cupcake in the shape of a strawberry. The store said they have discontinued Strawberry Shortcake toys for cake toppers. MK doesn't know that part yet. So, I have been busy getting ready. I will post more tomorrow.

Strawberry Shortcake

Treat Bags with pencils, candy, bubbles, chalk, and barnyard rubber ducks

MK was so surprised about this doll (Honey had been keeping/hiding her for me)

My Parents got MK a Scooter

She was so happy!

Here she is after church giving it a try (Normally I can't get her in a pair of jeans, she always wears a skirt or dress. Today she surprised me.)

I threw this one in to show her surprised face

Mady has started waving, that's why you can't see her hand

MK wore this little dress for her first Thanksgiving! I thought I better put Mady in it before the temp changes!
